BOTTLE-WASHING BRUSH.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 474,625, dated May 10,1892. Application filed December 26. 1891. Serial No. 416,124:- (Nomodel.)

2'0 all whom, it may concern.

Be it known that I, JOHN BABIS, a subject of the Emperor ofAustria-I-Iungary, residing in the city and county of Philadelphia,State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement inBottle-NVashing Brushes, which improvement is fully set forth in thefollowing specification and accompanying drawings.

My invention consists of a bottle-washing brush in which the bristlesare held by twisted material or metal and which is hollow, so as to forma conveyer for water through the brush.

Figure 1 represents a side elevation, partly in section, of abottle-washing brush embodying my invention. Fig. 2 represents a sectionon line 00 as, Fig. 1.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the twofigures.

Referring to the drawings, A designates the bristles, wires, &c.,of abottle-washing brush, the same being held by the twisted tubes B B, thelatter being connected with the collar (twhichis adapted to be connectedwith means for rotating the same, as usual in bottle-washing devices,and also adapted to direct water into said tubes. The end bristles D aredoubled or bent around the free ends of the tubes B and secured by wiresE, thus holding the same in position. It will be seen that when Water isadmitted into the collar C it enters the tubes Band discharges at thefree ends thereof, thus supplying the bottle and brush with water andeffecting superior results, it being evident that the tubes serve,conveyertor water, substantially as described.
